The Reluctant Alchemist's Guide to Thedas (Vol. 2) by paraparadigm
Fandoms: Dragon Age: Inquisition, Dragon Age (Video Games), Dragon Age - All Media Types
19 Oct 2020

Summary
Former historian Margo Duvalle has survived her transplantation to Thedas, but her troubles are just beginning. The body Margo occupies belonged to a rogue with a tumultuous past — a past that seems to stalk her at every corner. Now, at the questionable edges of the Inquisition, Margo’s life is tangled up with an organization that hangs by a thread, and its unlikely young leader whose uncanny abilities and unorthodox religious views might end up upending everything, for better or for worse. Saving a world is a thankless task — but who will save Thedas from its heroes?
I am indebted to Qophia for donating her labor as beta. All remaining mistakes are mine.Series

Summary
A woman falls from the sky just when she’s needed, what could it be but the work of the Maker? Why else should she speak in tongues but for being struck dumb by His grace?
She would disagree if anyone asked her. Could ask her. But by the time she has the words it’s too late, and June is heralded the Herald of Andraste. Burdened with knowledge and an entire system of faith carried on her shoulders that she holds no stock in, an earthling muddles her way through Thedas.- Language:

*Updated 11/13/12 with all the tidbits from DA:O, including the ghosts in the ruins, that I translated a few months ago.*
A look at, and break-down of the elvhen language. Excellent content and all kudos to the folks at the Dragon Age Wiki- I don't agree with them on every translation, but they've done a fantastic job, especially Ms. Bellaknoti (who by the way writes amazing Zevran fanfic. <3

Summary
*Sequel to The Wolf Wakes*
_
"You look like shit, Chuckles.”
Solas’ lips twitch, just slightly, and in the dim light he raises his head and looks Varric in the eye.
“Is that how you would introduce me, were I a character in one of your books? I’m curious. If you were writing me into being, what words would you choose?”
__
After losing Athera and giving his orb to Corypheus, Solas has no choice but to join the fledgling Inquisition and try to make things right. But with a nosy dwarf and an even nosier spy master knowing far more of him than they should, this time everything is different. A wolf without a pack is vulnerable, and Solas is in no state to play games.
Now updated with art by @yolebrat!

Summary
After leaving Szarr Entertainment in the wake of a tumultuous - deliberately engineered - scandal, Astarion Ancunín has rebuilt his acting career, from the blacklisted ground up. Through a heavily doctored narrative of queer reclamation, he's finally making a name for himself, and hoping to claim prestige (and maybe a few awards) through the leading role in a historical biopic about the openly gay elven oracle, Aerthwyn Capaxath.
The only problem is, Aerthwyn Capaxath is the worst person that ever lived (or died). Just ask Dr. Rosalie Frostsong, a thoroughly unwilling expert on the subject.

Summary
He was certain he’d gotten the body down, at least, with just enough fine tunings to quickly move him from ‘pleasant diversion' to ‘indispensible’, if he played his cards right. That much was simple, and not without its own small entertainments.
But the mind… the mind, he was beginning to worry, might elude him.
--
Astarion and Rosalie think they understand each other perfectly, but they have each fallen prey to the other’s mask. As they both go forward with their adventure, will either of them dare to be honest?
[This is a blatant, self-indulgent novelisation of BG3 full-access, and Part 2 to my Early Access fic, A Bleeding Heart. I try to avoid directly retelling too many moments in the game, but occasionally fall into the trap of rewriting some canon scenes. Dual perspective because now my Tav has some issues to overcome! Come here for the vampire man, stay here for Rosalie's mental illness :') ]

Summary
“M’aiq has known love.” he said, conversationally, after he’d spent a little time working out the notes of a song he’d made up on the spot.
This was a lie. He had hoped to know love. But where do truths begin, if not within the roots of lies?
“Were M’aiq to return to Nirni, M’aiq would spend his time making many small M’aiqs. Imagine it! Many M’aiqs. Infinite M’aiqs! Many M’aiqs is better than one M’aiq, yes? M’aiq thinks so. M’aiq thinks”-
WOULD THEY BE AS INSUFFERABLE AS YOU?
M’aiq shrugged, then wondered if gems had eyes with which to perceive shrugging.
“M’aiq cannot say.” he said, just in case. “M’aiq is only one M’aiq.”
-
In which M'aiq lies his way out of the Soul Cairn and into an impossible, millennium-spanning quest.

Summary
There’s really no good thing to say in circumstances such as these, but “Welcome back,” is at least relatively neutral.
“Hi,” they say, and then, “Are you okay?”
“Am I okay?!” The words come out high pitched and over-loud, almost a screech, and Astarion forces his voice to be quieter lest they be overheard when he hisses, “I killed you!”
“I know. That was the plan.” They take in his expression. “Was that not the plan?”
Astarion is just trying to survive this madness. He's not looking for a friend, and he's definitely not looking for a sub. Unfortunately for him, the Party's pet amnesiac murderhobo has other ideas.

Summary
Seven years before the Nautiloid is set to kidnap several random victims right off the streets of Baldur’s Gate, a pale elf prowls the taverns and streets at night in search for his next victim. One night, during a party thrown by his master, he lays his eyes on a new mark and thinks, yes, I can use her.
Meanwhile, a private detective is investigating the disappearance of thousands of people from the lower city and Rivington over the last two hundred years. Her latest lead puts her right in the path of a pale elf with a sharp tongue and even sharper fangs.
Or,
A chance encounter gives Astarion the opportunity to seize his freedom. He's going to do whatever it takes, even if it means manipulating the all too eager to please detective who is so determined to help him and take down Cazador. It should be a nice, simple plan... until it's not.

Summary
If the gods will not have you, perhaps they will not have those you have soiled so profusely, either; perhaps the soul of Alfira will be re-strung throughout the afterlife like the garland you’ve made her into in this one.
Mazeiah seeks absolution for his overwhelming guilt, but finds none. There is no forgiveness- only growth.
-- I intend to update this semi-regularly, it keeps me in practice. Thank you so so much for reading! I've had a lot of fun writing it!
-- Ch. 9 will be out once I finish replaying Act II. I also tend to re-write some scenes while in the process of writing the next chapter, so if some things change, that's why!
